Blisland class is taught by Mrs Brown,
who is supported by the wonderful Mrs Harris, Mrs Tite and Mr Main.

Reading Try and read every
day!

Please record this in your child’s reading
record book.

Children need to practise, practise, and practise the
reading skills they have been taught in school.

The more they practise the less likely they are to
encounter problems. Little and often is generally best.

Maths Home Learning

Your child will usually receive a short piece of maths
homework eachFriday to be completed and returned by the followingThursday.

This will support the work we have been doing in class that
week. It will be a worksheet or a practical activity for you to do with your
child.

On occasion there may be some STAR learning related homework.

They will also be expected to learn some facts off by
heart. (Number bonds, doubles & 2x, 5x, 10x times tables and their corresponding division facts)

Spellings

We will still be using the look/say/cover/write/check
method to learn spellings. The children will be bringing home their blue spellings
book, please take the time to see how they have done and to practice those they
have struggled with. The blue spellings book is NOT for practising the children
will be provided with a separate sheet with their weekly spellings and space to
practise.

There is also a list of common exception (tricky) words the
children will need to know before the end of year 2 so please take any
opportunity to practise these with the children to support the learning within
school. You will find a link to them below.

The children will be tested on their spellings everyFriday.

PE

The children should have their PE
kit every day. We will send them home each half term unless they need washing
beforehand. Please ensure your child has shorts for indoors as well as trousers
for outdoors.

Please make sure that all of your
child’s belongings are named clearly!
